I saw this interesting request show up in my log file:

I've got a valve defined that will intercept requests for a host not defined in server.xml and send back a 404 response instead of allowing the request to flow to the default host for the engine. Under what conditions will Tomcat (5.0.19) not send (or log) any response?
